TANDERAGEE,
WITH ACTON, GILFORD, LAUREL VALE, LAURENCETOWN, MULLAVILLY, POYNTZ PASS, SCARVA AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
TANDERAGEE, anciently Tawnatclee or Tawnatelee, is a market town, in the
parish of BALLYMORE, barony of Lower Orior, county of Armagh, 80 miles N.
from Dublin, 33 S.W. from Belfast, 14 N. by W. from Newry, 11 W. by N. from
Armagh, 9 S. by W. from Lurgan, 6-1/2 W. by N. from Banbridge, 5-1/2 N. by
W. from Loughbrick, and the same distance E.S.E. from Richhill, and 5 S. by
E. from Portadown ; seated on the river Cusher, and at the intersection of
the road from Portadown to Newry with that from Richhill to Banbridge. The
Newry canal, which comes within a mile and a half of the town, offers all
its important facilities of communication for trading with the large towns
of Belfast and Newry, besides bringing an abundant supply of coal, and also
of lime for the purposes of agriculture, to the surrounding district. The
town is also extensively benefited by the Dublin and Belfast Junction
Railway, which passes very near to Tanderagee. The town, which consists of
two principal and three smaller streets, is prepossessing in its general
appearance, and, as seen from a distance, rising from a beautiful vale,
through which the river winds between its lofty and richly-wooded banks at
one extremity, the demesne of Tanderagee crowning the hill on the other,
forms a strikingly picturesque feature in the landscape. The town stands on
the estate of the Duke of Manchester, whose demesne is a great ornament to
the town's vicinage. The mansion or castle of Tanderagee is a large and
modern baronial pile, occupying the site of an ancient castellated and
fortified residence. Adjoining the castle is a beautiful chapel, and the
entire pile, with its adjunctive beauties, are well deserving the visit of
the tourist. The country round has been long celebrated for the manufacture
of yarns and yard-wide linens, and large quantities at one time were brought
to the market here. This trade is not so extensive at present. A spinning
mill for the manufacture of linen yarn, belonging to Mr. Thomas Sinton, is
situated here. A branch of the Belfast Banking Company is established here.
Petty sessions for the division are held the first Tuesday in every month.
The town is governed by a Board of Commissioners.
The church, originally built by Oliver St. John, and which was nearly
demolished during the wars of 1641, was re-built in 1812, on the site of the
old church, and is a very handsome Gothic structure. The other places of
worship are for Baptists, Roman Catholics, Presbyterians, and Wesleyan
Methodists. The Roman Catholic church is a neat edifice, in the Gothic
style of architecture. There are four schools under the National Board,
partly supported by the Duke of Manchester, in which a large number of
children are educated; there is also a clothing fund supported, and there
are dispensaries, of which the same benevolent nobleman is the main support.
The market is held on Wednesday. The annual fairs are July 5th and November
5th. The town contained in 1881, 1,185, and in 1871, 1,210 inhabitants.
GILFORD is a post town, in the parish of TULLYLISH, barony of Lower
Iveagh, county of Down, 84 miles N. from Dublin, 14 N. from Newry, 10 S.W.
from Dromore, the same distance from Moira, 5 S. from Warrentown, and the
like distance N.W. from Banbridge; pleasantly situated at the eastern verge
of the county, on the river Bann, and on the road to Tanderagee and
Portadown. The town lies on both sides of the river (crossed by a stone
bridge of two arches), and is the joint property of J. W. M'Master and
Benjamin Dickson, Esquires ; it is deeply interested in the linen
manufacture, and is famous for its bleach grounds and the beautiful country
by which they are surrounded. within these few years its importance has
been very considerably increased by the firm of Dunbar, M'Master & Co. whose
establishment affords employment to a large number of persons ; the Banford
Bleach Works Company have also extensive grounds in the vicinity of Gilford,
and the corn mills of George Mullin & Co. are conducted on a liberal scale.
The canal from Lough Neagh to Newry passes within half a mile of the town,
and on its banks at that part are a wharf and warehouses. Gilford possesses
railway communication by means of the Dublin line, which has a station at
MADDEN BRIDGE, one mile distant. Petty sessions are held on the last
Wednesday in every month ; and a constabulary police station is in the town.
Gilford gives the inferior title of Baron to the Earl of Clanwilliam.
The places of worship are the parish church of Tullylish, a plain stone
building, an episcopal chapel, a handsome structure, two Presbyterian
chapels, one for Wesleyan Methodists, and two Roman Catholic churches.
There are several schools in Gilford and its immediate neighbourhood, all
well supported from the patronage of the linen merchants and
manufacturers--but in a special manner are the National schools at
Dumbarton, owing to the liberality of John M'Master, Esq. A chalybeate
spring rises in the neighbourhood, whose waters are said to possess the same
propeties as those of Pyrmount. The market is held on Friday. Population
of the town in 1861, 2,892, and in 1871, 2,720.
MULLAVILLY is a quoad sacra parish, within the quoad civilia parish of
KILMORE, and barony of Lower Orior, and is situated about two miles N.W. of
Tanderagee. At LAUREL VALE, which is in the vicinity, is the linen
manufactory of Mr. Thomas Sinton, as well as some others engaged in the same
branch of business. Population returned with the parish of Kilmore, which
contained in 1861, 10,981, and in 1871, 10,451 inhabitants.
LAURENCETOWN is a village in the same parish and barony as Gilford, 15
miles N.E. from Armagh, 7 S.E. from Portadown, and 2 N.W. from Banbridge.
The appearance of the village is neat. The bleach works of J. T. and H.
Uprichard are very extensive, and the many facilities for bleaching render
the cloth a superior kind. There is a National school here. Population in
1861, 126, and in 1871, 143.
POYNTZ PASS, a village, mostly in the same parish, barony, and county as
Tanderagee, a small portion being in the parish of AGHADERG, county Down, is
4 miles S. from Tanderagee, 7 N. from Newry, and 10 N. from Armagh. The
Protestant Episcopal church is in the Gothic style of architecture. The
Newry mountains are conspicuous in the distance, and the surrounding country
is very fertile. There are Presbyterian and Roman Catholic churches, and
two National schools. There is a court of petty sessions held here on the
first Monday in every month. A fair is held on the first Saturday in each
month, and the market on Friday. Population in 1861, 405, and in 1871, 386.
SCARVA, a pretty little village in the parish of AGHADERG, barony of Upper
Iveagh, county Down, situated at the foot of a rising hill, is 8 miles S.E.
of Portadown, 11 N. of Newry, and 13 S.E. of Armagh. There is a station on
the Great Northern Railway here, and the Newry canal also runs through the
village. The places of worship are Protestant Episcopal and Presbyterian
churches. There is also a National school and a constabulary station here.
Population in 1861, 252, and in 1871, 196.

TANDERAGEE, anciently Tawnatclee or Tawnatelee, is a market town, in the
parish of BALLYMORE, barony of Lower Orior, county of Armagh, 80 miles N.
from Dublin, 33 S.W. from Belfast, 14 N. by W. from Newry, 11 W. by N. from
Armagh, 9 S. by W. from Lurgan, 6-1/2 W. by N. from Banbridge, 5-1/2 N. by
W. from Loughbrick, and the same distance E.S.E. from Richhill, and 5 S. by
E. from Portadown ; seated on the river Cusher, and at the intersection of
the road from Portadown to Newry with that from Richhill to Banbridge. The
Newry canal, which comes within a mile and a half of the town, offers all
its important facilities of communication for trading with the large towns
of Belfast and Newry, besides bringing an abundant supply of coal, and also
of lime for the purposes of agriculture, to the surrounding district. The
town is also extensively benefited by the Dublin and Belfast Junction
Railway, which passes very near to Tanderagee. The town, which consists of
two principal and three smaller streets, is prepossessing in its general
appearance, and, as seen from a distance, rising from a beautiful vale,
through which the river winds between its lofty and richly-wooded banks at
one extremity, the demesne of Tanderagee crowning the hill on the other,
forms a strikingly picturesque feature in the landscape. The town stands on
the estate of the Duke of Manchester, whose demesne is a great ornament to
the town's vicinage. The mansion or castle of Tanderagee is a large and
modern baronial pile, occupying the site of an ancient castellated and
fortified residence. Adjoining the castle is a beautiful chapel, and the
entire pile, with its adjunctive beauties, are well deserving the visit of
the tourist. The country round has been long celebrated for the manufacture
of yarns and yard-wide linens, and large quantities at one time were brought
to the market here. This trade is not so extensive at present. A spinning
mill for the manufacture of linen yarn, belonging to Mr. Thomas Sinton, is
situated here. A branch of the Belfast Banking Company is established here.
Petty sessions for the division are held the first Tuesday in every month.
The town is governed by a Board of Commissioners.
The church, originally built by Oliver St. John, and which was nearly
demolished during the wars of 1641, was re-built in 1812, on the site of the
old church, and is a very handsome Gothic structure. The other places of
worship are for Baptists, Roman Catholics, Presbyterians, and Wesleyan
Methodists. The Roman Catholic church is a neat edifice, in the Gothic
style of architecture. There are four schools under the National Board,
partly supported by the Duke of Manchester, in which a large number of
children are educated; there is also a clothing fund supported, and there
are dispensaries, of which the same benevolent nobleman is the main support.
The market is held on Wednesday. The annual fairs are July 5th and November
5th. The town contained in 1881, 1,185, and in 1871, 1,210 inhabitants.
GILFORD is a post town, in the parish of TULLYLISH, barony of Lower
Iveagh, county of Down, 84 miles N. from Dublin, 14 N. from Newry, 10 S.W.
from Dromore, the same distance from Moira, 5 S. from Warrentown, and the
like distance N.W. from Banbridge; pleasantly situated at the eastern verge
of the county, on the river Bann, and on the road to Tanderagee and
Portadown. The town lies on both sides of the river (crossed by a stone
bridge of two arches), and is the joint property of J. W. M'Master and
Benjamin Dickson, Esquires ; it is deeply interested in the linen
manufacture, and is famous for its bleach grounds and the beautiful country
by which they are surrounded. within these few years its importance has
been very considerably increased by the firm of Dunbar, M'Master & Co. whose
establishment affords employment to a large number of persons ; the Banford
Bleach Works Company have also extensive grounds in the vicinity of Gilford,
and the corn mills of George Mullin & Co. are conducted on a liberal scale.
The canal from Lough Neagh to Newry passes within half a mile of the town,
and on its banks at that part are a wharf and warehouses. Gilford possesses
railway communication by means of the Dublin line, which has a station at
MADDEN BRIDGE, one mile distant. Petty sessions are held on the last
Wednesday in every month ; and a constabulary police station is in the town.
Gilford gives the inferior title of Baron to the Earl of Clanwilliam.
The places of worship are the parish church of Tullylish, a plain stone
building, an episcopal chapel, a handsome structure, two Presbyterian
chapels, one for Wesleyan Methodists, and two Roman Catholic churches.
There are several schools in Gilford and its immediate neighbourhood, all
well supported from the patronage of the linen merchants and
manufacturers--but in a special manner are the National schools at
Dumbarton, owing to the liberality of John M'Master, Esq. A chalybeate
spring rises in the neighbourhood, whose waters are said to possess the same
propeties as those of Pyrmount. The market is held on Friday. Population
of the town in 1861, 2,892, and in 1871, 2,720.
MULLAVILLY is a quoad sacra parish, within the quoad civilia parish of
KILMORE, and barony of Lower Orior, and is situated about two miles N.W. of
Tanderagee. At LAUREL VALE, which is in the vicinity, is the linen
manufactory of Mr. Thomas Sinton, as well as some others engaged in the same
branch of business. Population returned with the parish of Kilmore, which
contained in 1861, 10,981, and in 1871, 10,451 inhabitants.
LAURENCETOWN is a village in the same parish and barony as Gilford, 15
miles N.E. from Armagh, 7 S.E. from Portadown, and 2 N.W. from Banbridge.
The appearance of the village is neat. The bleach works of J. T. and H.
Uprichard are very extensive, and the many facilities for bleaching render
the cloth a superior kind. There is a National school here. Population in
1861, 126, and in 1871, 143.
POYNTZ PASS, a village, mostly in the same parish, barony, and county as
Tanderagee, a small portion being in the parish of AGHADERG, county Down, is
4 miles S. from Tanderagee, 7 N. from Newry, and 10 N. from Armagh. The
Protestant Episcopal church is in the Gothic style of architecture. The
Newry mountains are conspicuous in the distance, and the surrounding country
is very fertile. There are Presbyterian and Roman Catholic churches, and
two National schools. There is a court of petty sessions held here on the
first Monday in every month. A fair is held on the first Saturday in each
month, and the market on Friday. Population in 1861, 405, and in 1871, 386.
SCARVA, a pretty little village in the parish of AGHADERG, barony of Upper
Iveagh, county Down, situated at the foot of a rising hill, is 8 miles S.E.
of Portadown, 11 N. of Newry, and 13 S.E. of Armagh. There is a station on
the Great Northern Railway here, and the Newry canal also runs through the
village. The places of worship are Protestant Episcopal and Presbyterian
churches. There is also a National school and a constabulary station here.
Population in 1861, 252, and in 1871, 196.
